I’m glad moose found his way back to skating and putting out good content.
He was skating the whole time, they gave him the boot cuz he didn't want to party
Lil wayne makes good skating content....skrub
@@Harp_and_Guitar_Moving_Forwardwho hurt you??
Moose and Furby were definitely the top guys on deathwish at that time
Agreed. Them both disappearing at the same time hurt when you've seen them for so long
Moose, Furbz AND Antwuan. They made the brand what they are today.
Furry was a beast
Yup then Greco’s ego destroyed the brand
Kind of suspicious that the only 2 Mexicans on the team get kicked off for no reason
dude with the huge board is the final boss of skateboarding.
I love how not only he has a huge board, but he also has huge shoes, huge pants and a huge hoodie lmao
Final boss at any LA skatepark
Does anyone know what deck that is ? 😂
I said the same thing hahaha
Came to the comments looking for info on wtf need some details on that
Not getting kicked off could've led him into more of a party scene & an eventual downward spiral. With where he is now, it may have been for the best.
Everything happens for a reason, it may not seem like it at the time but every bad thing that happens comes with an opportunity to learn.
It would seem that it ended up being both a blessing and a curse, that he wound up on Deathwish over Baker, and although the Deathwish crew seem to be a bit more skating oriented, as opposed to the grime of Baker boys.Overall, I think he had the type of personality to have been a good fit on Baker, regardless of how devastating of an impact it may have had on his skating and lifestyle, especially during the Baker boy hayday, I can see a parallel universe in which Moose didn't wind up walking in the same shoes he's currently stompin'
John hill manuals are my fav arc oh John hill
i think the deathwish guys knew all along that moose deserves more than this and that and prevented him from future self destruct by kicking him off
Ya Andrew Reynolds doesn't deal with that shit anymore. Kinda ironic cuz the hijinks and partying is what gave Baker 3 like a cult following.
You and Moose click so well together! Please do more videos with him. Whenever I was younger, Moose was my favorite skater for the longest. His style and trick selection was so good. I'm glad to see him putting himself out there again.
Man I remember watching Moose when I was in high school and being a huge fan. Sucks to hear what’s happened. Seems like a very genuine dude and I hope things pop off for him fr. Thanks for doing this video bro it was dope to see
His game of skate against PJ is still one of my favorite BATB games of all time
Moose is too good not to take off....he will get his "groove" back fast......to talented not 2
I don't care about your highschool. No name misfit
What a great watch, and Moose is such a good dude. He did not get a fair share. He had the best part in the Deathwish video, only to get cut from their team a year or two later. Can’t imagine how much more he would have done with them if they kept him on and he stayed on that trajectory
Getting kicked off Deathwish convo starts at 14:36, if you’re short on time
Thank you, this vid was taking way too long!
I care why?
Thanks, I had to skip through all the meh skating to get to it.
@@whita-db9zwprecisely
thx.. great
It's good to see him back skating. Moose's first game of skate in BATB against PJ Ladd is one of the greatest games ever. Even PJ was blown away how good he was.
Bruh one of the best games of skate ever !!!
inward heel
This battle was very epic. Damn
Now I gotta rewatch
Congrats on being Sober man. Mad respect. I have 6 years of sobriety under my belt from a very bad opiate addiction and have nothing but respect and understanding for recovering addicts.
I use to skate for City Stars a long time ago and totally destroyed my knee got hooked on pain killers cause I was being fed them like candy, long story short I went to prison and pissed away a skate career, but I also feel like the industry turned their back on me somewhat, it’s a cold world, I’d love to share my story on your channel I still skate for fun. Love watching the videos!
JC is a legend. Get him on the program! I'll be out in LA in November, JC. -Tron
Bro hit Crob up. Theres a NineClub interview waiting for you. Always been a fan.
You were a beast man, I still remember many of your old parts/features etc. I hear the tough path and legal trouble.. The other side is a brand new life though, which you may be experiencing. I would love to hear your deep dive on the channel or 9 club, stay good
I remember you, that's a sad story, glad you got off the pills
Salute JC dude your part in Street Cinema was one of my favorites. I was a huge fan of City Stars, I became a even bigger fan when I found out you, Mikey and Ryan Denman was into Hondas at one point 😆 b16 swaps and all
Man moose has so much talent. Glad to see him getting his life together. Can't wait to see another part from him
moose is chill af he came to my local park in maine bout 2 summers ago, he started skating the big stair and rail and my and my friend asked if we could skate it with him and we was super cool we took turnss back and forth and he was hyped to have us skating with him he even complimented me i nollied the 3 flat 3 first try; super down to earth normal guy
7:16 So true, I grew up skating 2004 - 2009 era. Nobody was fighting for clips. Just went all around the city with friends to skate anything we could. It was like an adventure every time. And no time felt the same. Like something unique happened each time, whether a new trick, new spot or stupid antics. Was a great feeling.
She may have been in the way, but that girl at 8:21 who's gotta be like 9 years old nailed that kickflip! That's awesome!
🚀
@@theslakenloser
I hope this video will help Moose get a lot of subscribers and help him get his youtube going! He is an insane skater and I have also know him since his legendary bust or bail 17 stair backside 360. He was WAY ahead of his time!
ikr
For real that was a jaw dropper
Loved hearing Moose pumped in the back round every time someone landed a trick. Always a sign of a good person.
Hes such a genuine person, fuck deathwish.
ya sucks how they went about it for sure moose was and still is sick
Major fuck deathwish
John Hill you make it look so easy, it's magical.
Happy to see Moose footage. Dude always killed it and seemed like a genuinely good kid. Never understood why he got kicked off
Props to moose for staying positive after going through such a hard time. It would be hard for me not to resent deathwish
That's cause you a booty boiii who cannot take responsibility.
Resent them ? Why ?
I hate death wish
@@mccleandazza4618 Did you watch the video?
No reason to resent them
Dude this sesh is so good. Hyped from both you and moose. Both tricks on the curved ledge were so good.
I just remember the Moose vs Pj Ladd BATB, that was a war of hardest tricks
yup he had that sick fit too
Loved seeing john progress over the last couple years
Have you seen his old footage? Jon used to be a real street skater. Coulda definitely taken the traditional skate career path if he wanted
John, I think moving back to Cali was a great idea for what you do and your lifestyle. Your skating seems to be getting more consistent, and generally you seem happier both on and off your board. I've noticed your videos have consisted of quite a bit more skating than usual as well, which further backs up my overall theory on the habitat relocation being the precursor for it. Great shit dude!
Moose is a beast. So glad my best years of skating in my life were when he was appearing in tons of stuff. Always got me psyched!
Good luck in all you do in life, Moose. Same to all you reading this!
yo John, I gotta say, you really dialed in your skill in the last few years outside of California. I love that now you've come back and you're like way better then you were last time. It's a storm brewing!
Man, that is like the perfect energy for an interview. Loved it.
What makes your videos even more watchable is how the landing of the board syncs with the music throughout the video, so mesmerizing
When I was a new skater as a kid at cam park, moose saw my razor tailed board and went to his trunk and got me a different hand me down board with a better tail. On top of that he worked at the local skate shop and
Whenever I would buy a new board he would put grip on it and transfer the trucks for me
Solid guy
The irony of turning down the team accommodations to avoid drinking too much and then getting booted and ending up drinking anyways… props to Moose for getting through it all and coming back strong.
Good observation
Moose came around the Oxnard skatepark a lot when I was growing up, was a huge inspiration to us all. Remember playing games of skate with him, he basically taught me all the switch tricks I know. Glad he’s back and still killing it!
I’ve been a moose fan for awhile, it’s sad to hear this but I’m glad to see you skate!
So we’re just not gonna talk about the homie with the PHAT nose and tail casually hitting the manny pad?😂
Dude had me dying 😂
I was in tears when I saw it
I remember watching Henry Gartland kickflip gap to crook on an A frame at 3rd lair in person and it melted my brain, R.I.P. Henry
I met Moose at a Deathwish Demo in 2010 and seeing him skate in person was mind blowing ,His pop on every trick is amazing
Thank you to John and Moose! So refreshing man and I've always wished for insight on what happened. I still feel like he could've had last part in The Deathwish Video. Please make a similar video with Furby sometime, if he's ever around and willing!
His Deathwish part is still an all time fav. I can’t believe they just let him go like that. Curious what Ellington’s side is
Much love! Good for moose being sober! I love watching his skating, His style is amazing. The 270 heel outta tail is crazy
Yooo this video was crazy, first the guy with the huge board bro who is that?? 😂 then Moose revealing that he skates his board backwards. Loved the jazzy stair session
Thats the first thing I noticed too besides the skating
Great one John...awesome seeing you two skating together. Always been hyped on Moose 🙌
Always loved watching Moose skate. Another one name person that disappeared was Furby...he had such a dope style and was gnarly as hell
I love moose. Worked with him in 2018 and he was a true professional. Much love moose, happy you’re happy.
i was promoting a cannabis brand called roach, we did various social media stuff and had an event where he saved the day. Moose is a really good dude and great to work with @boogatikasino9978
Loved mystery skateboards growing up 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
I always liked the vibe of the brand, and I loved Jimmy Carlin and Moose, but the one mystery board I had as a kid was super thick and heavy and lacked pop. I remember having a hard time kickflipping over a cinder block but did it every try on my friends setup
@@tbvolcomskater Hmm, wonder what board it was? I used to rock the Mystery Lopez board, and I had no issues with double flips. My double flips required a lot of pop lol
really really love the editing in ur videos. the timing of all the tricks with the music is so nice to listen to, keep it up!!!
all the best to moose. Drinking just zaps your energy and it’s good to be off that. Thanks for this
You're a great dude to make this content because you're authentic which your followers know and enables these real conversations
Back smith kickflip was sick man! 🔥
back smith kickflip out, beautiful! and Moose, so good, great to have an update on him, seems not so fun the way things went down, but he seems happy and positive overall, nice to see, thank you!
This dude probably had the best part in the old death wish video, and seems like such a rad, humble dude! Good to see him out killing it still!!
First time I saw him was at Bust or Bail. That 360 blew everyones mind at the time. He took the impact so easily, Hollywood High looks like he did it down a curb lmao. The Santa Monica triple set is longer than most too, NOBODY was gonna do a nollie frontside flip down that thing besides him. And they are allowed to be a little mob 😂 when that big. So stoked that he's on Mystery. Cant imagine other riders not getting along with Moose, thats some bs.
I wish Zero would of picked him up. He's Deathwish Part was Insane!!!
seeing Moose when rewatching We Are Blood brought me back. Always good to see someone come back to skateboarding.
nobody gon talk about the deviously enormous skateboard that the other dude was ridin
Ye, how come I dont see any comments apart from this one?
Great video! Just subbed to both channels. Love both of your passion and Moose is such a cool dude who is super mature. Excited to see his new stuff!
Many of my friends and coworkers from the Ventura/Oxnard area would agree that this dude is a creep with underage girls and that’s why he got kicked off
Can you explain a bit more , been seeing a lot of these comments especially on slap it's crazy honestly
Especially since no one talks about it because the Baker team was Dollin, Reynolds, Boulala, and trust me, having partied with them in France, they were definitely not the last ones to date girls teens betwen 15/16/17 clearly , So I find it a bit too easy to accuse a guy of being a pervert just because he supposedly went out with underage girls. Today, these underage girls are 100 times more advanced than some of us were at 17 years old in 2024. Believe me, girls are no longer little kids. Stop the bad faith.
thanks so much for this video, did not know who moose was but now i am definitly going to support in watchin his videos! i also stoped skating fro around 7 years and i barely am trying to skate again!!!
Most people from Oxnard (Moose home town) find Moose polarizing cuz he’s known to have messed with under age girls In the past.
what???
The girl in the vid looks young too lol
Seeing you skate like this with Moose was so dope. You really skated amazing in this video
It sucks that like no matter how good you are at something it’s always gonna be a popularity contest
Its okay man, im in moose's side.
I hope he gets successful with his YT channel and have fun 😌.
Moose said he’s been sober for 2 years but he did a white claw skate video on Lamont Holts channel like a month ago
Yooo! You’re right I remember watching that video too 😂😂
I remember something about him being with an underage girl as being the reason he got kicked off too 🤔
Moose and Furby always stood out to me for style and tricks, so so good
Moose and Furby were the most talented skaters on deathwish. I have a feeling that Greco kicked them out because he and ellington were more friends with neen, jon dickson, etc. And furby and moose were better skaters.
That's the impression that I get
It’s funny they got rid of all the guys that the brand image was built on. Yes it was Ellington and Greco company but those dudes were repping what the brand wanted to be just by being themselves. Greco side project was a much better fit, more creative and reflected himself more.
Moose is so underrated and I’m so stoked he’s from my hometown such a inspiration
What it seems like to me is that Moose didn’t really fit into the baker/deathwish clique, and they used the moving situation as more of an excuse to cut him loose. Although he may have been cool with everyone, companies like these are very specific in who they want riding for them. They not only have to rip it, but also have to gel into the dynamics of the team.
Thanks for introducing me to Moose - LOVE his vibe/energy - DUDE WILL GO FAR!!!!!
That kickflip back crook was crazy awesome !🤯
Good on you John Hill for giving him a platform. Like yourself he definitely deserves to earn a living from skateboarding.
17:50 just what i needed to hear. I've had some bad luck these last few years. I kept drinking heavily throughout all the BS. I just want to go back to my old self. Seeing him happy and picking up where he left off sure is motivating.
Deathwish wasn’t the same once furby, moose, Twuan and slash left
very true
I checked out of skateboarding a couple years ago and was just blown away by moose. Cool to see him back in the game, even though I didn’t realize he left
It's a shame he wasn't closer to the Death wish team cuz of drinking and ended up down that path anyway. Glad he's doing better now though.
Moose, Antwuan, and Furby should start a company together
I had a huge drug/drinking problem. Been clean for a few years now, and I can totally relate to him not wanting to even be around that type of scene. Or even be tempted by it. I can go years without drinking now, but If I see someone doing it, it makes it incredibly hard not to want to. Honestly, I'd rather be kicked from a team than be forced to be around those types of things. It makes it worse that I try not to be that guy who got clean and now tells everyone that they can't drink or use around me. So I basically just avoid people entirely that are doing it.
Every landing matching the snare from the bg song is sooo satisfying.
That dudes big goofy ahh board 😂😂😂
"IM A ALLIGATOR!!!" His part on The Deathwish Video was always my favorite. When me and the homies would land something bolts we'd always yell "MOOOOOSE" lmaoo
This story does not add up…. Ellington and Reynolds’s were getting sober around the time he was kicked off…he did not get kicked off for “ not partying hard enough” its clearly cause ppl did not get along with him for other reasons
Reynolds rather exploit little black kids
Amazing to see moose skate more often, because of people like him and how they’ve kept things raw, it inspired me to start a company that can bring more raw footage, skating, and eventually locally made boards back to skateboarding, much love and respect to those who keep skating what it’s supposed to be.
man you are a really good interviewer hill... you were asking all the good questions w/o making him uncomfortable it gave the interview a good vibe... you should do this more specially if its with someone you admire
Yeah this video was so good, the vibe and tempo were perfect. The little cut ins of John talking were done really well and added a lot to the video. The interview was super casual but deep and the smith kickflip was mmmmm.

Moose was my favorite skater on deathwish next figgy. He was literally everything core skaters wanted to be
Such a rad day skating with you man! Good times and more to come! 🙏 @JohnHill
the Suuuuii celebration with the Romaldo jersey made my day @6:15
Moose is awesome! I was stoked to to see doing really good!
Already subscribing to Moose's channel, he deserves to live doing what he loves.
Deathwish has always been one of my favorite board companies, but I never knew what happened to Moose. Great video. Glad to see Moose killin' it!
Great video!! Would be cool to have more of these with your content style
Looking back at skateboarding from a child to today, man I was an idiot not in a sense of not understand the tricks but understanding theres so much more I could not see with the flick of the foot or pop of the board to make the tricks happen! :)
Like the amount of skill to really make these happens on top of confidence to make them happen if they are scary. I seen it like a cartoon when I was a child now I see it in graphic detail but not perfect where I could do it.
Always liked watching your videos and was really happy when you started to have moose in your videos. Moose, I remember when we were in high school watching you skate the 99 cent gap and knew you were going to make it someday. It's been really cool to see your journey over the years and I am glad you decided to start a RUclips channel, best of luck to you man!
It was interesting to hear John touch on Deathwish and Baker’s reputations. Would love to see a breakdown of the vibes/branding/styles of the different brands and teams in the current scene, how that impacts their products, who they work with etc.
the tailslide heelflip 270 was INSANE! moose you are a beast! From the early berrics days to today!
Hope everything works out for moose much love ❤️🔥 seems like such a nice guy and a talented skater
So i live here in oxnard,and i recently saw Moose skating around close to where i work,i was too shy to ask for a picture or smn but it was rad to see him there still going strong!
The only rider I've met in person from baker/ deathwish was bryan Herman at pharmacy in Victorville. He was genuine person! Moose keep skating an staying sober. Hearing what Ellington said to you was low... lost respect for him, baker and deathwish. Much respect for you! 💯👌
Moose was so humble when I met him in New Braunfels, Texas in 2009. Nicest dude ever would take his time and talk to everyone at the skatepark and at the skate shop where they were signing autographs
This is the best video you've ever made. Moose has one of the sickest kickflips. Do more like this please.
Thanks for filming this. Always wondered what the story was.
Moose had the best part in the deathwish video technical and mad steezy, you guys killed it. 🤙
